Open Day and Fees-Free for Students

Manager from NorthTec (Northland Polytechnic)

Take a look at what NorthTec has to offer at our Open Day – 12PM-2PM Thursday 2 July. Join us on our Raumanga, Whangarei campus or stream online via our Facebook page.

Many of NorthTec’s programmes are now being offered fees-free in 2020. Staff from the academic areas will be on hand to discuss study programmes available in semester two, which gets under way in July.

Around one third of all NorthTec programmes will be fees-free, under the Government’s new Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund.

New fees-free programmes include training in civil engineering and architectural technology; agriculture, horticulture, pest operations and forestry; health and wellbeing; commercial transport; construction, carpentry and painting; electrical and mechanical engineering; exercise, and sustainable primary production.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

noisy dogs

Rob from Central Whangarei

lats get cracking on this topic.
Ignorant, selfish dog "owners" that allow their dogs to bark all bloody night and to hell with neighbors right to reasonable peace and quiet and reluctance of authorities to do anything
